New Makeup Releases: Release Dates, Shades & Prices

If you've quietly retired your eyeliner because it smudges, transfers or settles into fine lines, Sarah Creal has a new reason to try again. The brand has added Cairo to its Eyes Up Creamy Kajal Longwear Liner range. It's a cool, smoky gold with bronze pearl in a shimmer finish, and it's available now.

What's New: Meet Cairo

Cairo is a cool, smoky gold with bronze pearl. It's a metallic that leans sophisticated rather than brassy. The cooler gold base keeps it from looking too warm, and the bronze pearl adds dimension that catches the light when you blink. Linda, the face of the campaign, wears it, and it works for both a polished daytime wash and a softly glowing evening look.

Why the Eyes Up Creamy Kajal Liner Stands Out

Founder Sarah Creal designed Eyes Up specifically for eyes over 40. It accounts for hooded lids and the rich eye creams and concealers that tend to break down ordinary liners. Here's what the formula offers:

• 24-hour, smudge-proof, transfer-proof and waterproof wear. This was confirmed in a clinical evaluation of 34 volunteers aged 40 to 65.
• Cream-Gel Matrix technology glides smoothly over fine lines without tugging or skipping.
• A cross-linked polymer flexes with your expressions, so the colour won't crease, even on hooded lids.
• Allantoin calms and soothes delicate skin around the eye.
• Ceramides help moisturise and protect thinning under-eye skin.
• Ophthalmologist tested, and safe for the waterline, contact lens wearers and sensitive eyes.
• Vegan, gluten-free, fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and Leaping Bunny certified cruelty-free.

The consumer results are just as convincing. In a two-week survey of 30 women with sensitive eyes, 100% found it easy to apply and blend, 94% said it outperforms their current liner, and 91% called it the best eyeliner they've ever tried.

How to Wear Cairo

1. Trace along your upper lash line or waterline.
2. Blend with the included tapered brush. You have a little play time before the formula sets.
3. Set it and forget it. Once it sets, it stays put until you remove it with makeup remover.

Pro tip: You can build a full smoky eye using only Eyes Up. Choose 2–3 complementary shades and apply the deepest one along the lash line, then layer the lighter shades over it, blending after each. Try Cairo with Twilight Smoke or Grey Area underneath for a cool-toned metallic smoke. For a warmer, glowy finish, pair it with Rich Cocoa.

The Full Eyes Up Shades Lineup

Cairo joins a versatile range of shades:

• Jet Black
• Everyday Taupe
• Copper
• Bronzy
• Rich Cocoa
• Golden
• Twilight Smoke
• Rose Bronze
• Jungle
• Maritime
• Everyday Matte Bronze
• Grey Area

Price and Shipping

The Eyes Up liner costs $35 and comes with a blending brush. US orders over $50 ship free, and if you order three or more items you'll get the brand's signature pouch as a gift.

The Verdict

Cairo is an easy, elegant way to add some shimmer to your eyes. It suits anyone who wants a gold liner that actually lasts, especially if hooded lids or sensitive eyes have made eyeliner frustrating in the past.

Holiday gifting just got juicier. Huda Beauty has launched four new Holiday 2026 value sets, sold only at Sephora. They're marked "NEW" and "Limited Edition" on Sephora US and "NEW | ONLY AT SEPHORA" on Sephora Australia. The lineup covers creamy liquid blush, lip contour stain and a gourmand fragrance, which makes these gift sets easy picks for stockings, Secret Santa or yourself.

The Products: Four Sets to Know

Mini Blush Mocktail Trio Gift Set, called Baby Blush Trio – Rosy Latte Mocktail on the box and at Sephora Australia, includes three mini Blush Filter Soft Glow Liquid Blushes in these shades:

• Latte
• Strawberry Latte
• Black Cherry

It's a great way to try the cult soft-glow formula without committing to full sizes.

Blushed Nudes Lip & Cheek Kit comes in a pink vanity bag and holds three full-size products:

• Lip Contour Stain in Soft Nude
• Faux Filler Lip Gloss in She Glitzy
• Blush Filter Liquid Blush in Strawberry Cream (shown as Strawberry Latte on some listings)

Kiss Me Lip Contour Stain and Lip Jelly Gift Set, also called the Kiss Me Lip Duo, pairs a Lip Contour Stain with a Faux Filler Jelly Oil. It comes in three shade pairings:

• Pink Nude: neutral brown stain with sheer rosy pink jelly oil
• Rich Goji: rich taupe brown stain with sheer electric pink jelly oil
• Warm Peach: burnt brown stain with sheer peachy nude jelly oil

Intense & Juicy Fragrance & Lip Oil Duo combines a 10 ml travel-size Easy Bake Intense Eau de Parfum with Faux Filler Jelly Oil in a limited-edition shade, Cinnamon Shimmer. The perfume blends wild cherry, white flower, cinnamon bark and caramel milk, and vanilla bourbon.

The Blushed Nudes kit costs $55, while buying its three items one by one would cost $71. Each Kiss Me duo costs $32 against a $46 separate-purchase value.

How to Wear Them

• Contour, then gloss: Line and lightly fill lips with the Lip Contour Stain, then dab the jelly oil or gloss on the centre for a plump, ombré effect.
• Tap, don't swipe: Liquid blush builds fast. Dot a little on the cheekbones and blend with your fingertips while it's still wet.
• Match your mood: Latte gives a soft everyday flush, while Black Cherry suits deeper holiday glam.
• Layer the scent: Spritz Easy Bake Intense on pulse points, then finish with Cinnamon Shimmer for a coordinated gourmand look.

Where to Buy

• US: Sephora – Blush Mocktail Trio ($29), Sephora – Blushed Nudes Lip & Cheek Kit ($55), Sephora – Kiss Me Lip Duo ($32). The Intense & Juicy Duo is $35, but its Sephora US listing is not yet live.
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• International: Sephora Australia – Baby Blush Trio (A$49), Sephora Australia – Lip & Cheek Kit (A$97), Sephora Australia – Kiss Me Duo (A$58), Sephora Australia – Intense & Juicy Duo (A$57)

These are limited edition, so if a shade pairing catches your eye, don't wait too long. Holiday sets like these tend to sell out quickly.

Two brands found in many women's daily routines have finally joined forces. Spanx and OLAY have launched their first-ever collaboration, the limited-edition Spanx x OLAY "Get Cheeky" Bundle. It pairs OLAY's firming skincare with Spanx's smoothing lace underwear in one Amazon-exclusive box. It's playful, practical and timed for October Prime Day 2026. Here are the release date, the products inside and the price.

What's Inside the Get Cheeky Bundle

The bundle has three products, packed in a collectible red box with cut-out OLAY and SPANX lettering and a "Get Cheeky" band.

• OLAY Regenerist Face & Neck Lifting Treatment (NEW): This formula combines OLAY's Hexa-Repair Peptide™ Complex with Pro-NAD+. It helps tighten, firm and contour sagging skin and supports surface renewal. The tube says it is fragrance free, which is good news for sensitive skin.
• OLAY Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream: OLAY's well-known moisturiser uses Triple Collagen Peptide technology. It helps visibly improve firmness, elasticity and deep wrinkles for smoother, more sculpted-looking skin.
• SPANXsupersmooth® Undie-tectable® Lace Hi-Hipster: This soft lace style gives light compression. It has a bonded smoothing waistband, breathable quick-drying fabric and elastic-free edges, so it leaves no visible panty lines. The body is 77% nylon and 23% elastane, the lace is 83% nylon and 17% elastane, and the gusset is 100% cotton. It's machine washable.

Why This Pairing Works

The idea is simple: help women feel confident from the face down. "Both OLAY and Spanx have earned a trusted place in women's daily routines," says Katie Weeks, SVP of Marketing at Spanx. She calls the bundle "a smart, natural fit." Gwynedd Davis, VP of OLAY North America, adds that both brands invest in innovation "to develop products that deliver on their promises and help women look and feel confident and comfortable in their own skin."

How to Get the Most From It

• Don't stop at your jawline. Smooth the Face & Neck Lifting Treatment upward over your neck and décolletage, areas that often get skipped.
• Layer smartly. Apply the lighter treatment first, then seal it in with the Micro-Sculpting Cream, morning or night. Add SPF in the daytime.
• Be consistent. Peptide-based firming formulas give their best results with daily use over several weeks.
• Pick your shade wisely. Choose Soft Nude or Black to wear under fitted dresses and tailoring. Choose Red for something more fun.

Price and Release Date

The bundle is listed on Amazon.com now. The brands' Instagram announcement points to availability from 6 October. The key dates are 6–7 October 2026, when the bundle drops 30% off its $110 value to $77 for Amazon Prime Day. Put simply, the set costs $77 during the deal, while the items are valued at $110 in total. The everyday Amazon price is not yet confirmed. This is a limited run, so stock may sell out.

Where to Buy

• US: Amazon.com, in Soft Nude, Black and Red. The price is $77 during Prime Day, 6–7 October 2026.
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• International: Not yet confirmed

If you've ever stood in front of the Josie Maran counter unable to pick just one Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter, the brand has solved that problem. The Butter Atelier is Josie Maran's Holiday 2026 exclusive. It brings every scent of the cult body butter together in a vegan leather train case with a gold lock and key. It's the ultimate gift for the body-care obsessive in your life, or a very indulgent treat for yourself.

Release Date and Price

The Butter Atelier's release date was 2 October 2026, when it went live on josiemaran.com. The set is priced at $250. Buying all eight full-size jars one by one at $36 each would cost $288, so the set saves you money and the case comes included. It is limited to one per customer and sold as final sale, so it can't be returned or exchanged.

The Products: Eight Full-Size Scents

Each of the eight 6 fl oz jars contains the brand's air-whipped formula, which Josie Maran says delivers 48 hours of hydration. The products in the set are:

• …In Bed (newest scent): whipped vanilla milk, cashmere musk, tonka bean
• Topless Tangerine: pixie tangerine, pink grapefruit, brown sugar
• Golden Hour: amber, white musk, santal
• Vanilla Vibezzz: soft vanilla, bergamot, cedarwood
• Vanilla Bean: vanilla bean absolute
• Vanilla Apricot: ripe apricot and vanilla
• Bohemian Fig: notes not listed in the set's description
• Always Nude: unscented, ideal for sensitive noses

Why Skin Loves It

The formula is built around three nourishing ingredients:

• Argan oil is one of nature's richest sources of essential fatty acids and helps support firmness and elasticity.
• Avocado oil is rich in antioxidants and known to improve elasticity.
• Shea butter moisturises and soothes, helping skin stay supple.

In a two-week consumer perception survey of 39 people, 97% agreed their thighs, stomach and arms felt firmer and toned. The formulas are free of parabens, phthalates, mineral oils, sulfates, talc and PFAS. The glass jars can be topped up with BPA-free refill pouches, so the set keeps working long after the holidays.

How to Get the Best Glow

Massage the Butter generously anywhere on your body, and give extra attention to dry areas like elbows, knees and shins. For the longest-lasting glow, Josie recommends applying it right after bathing, while skin is warm and receptive.

You can also layer by mood. Try Topless Tangerine for a bright morning or Golden Hour for evening warmth. Save …In Bed for a cosy night in.

The Train Case

The Atelier Train Case is a roomy vegan leather beauty trunk finished with a gold lock and key, and it arrives in a collectable cotton dust bag. Once the jars are empty, it works beautifully as a vanity organiser. The brand jokes that you should pack it with Butters for everyone so nobody borrows yours.

The Butter Atelier is billed as a holiday exclusive, and no other retailers list it yet. If it's on your wishlist, buy it early, because the one-per-customer limit suggests stock won't last.

If you love trying prestige makeup before committing to full sizes, the Created For Macy's 5-Piece Luxury Beauty Essential Set is worth a look. This Macy's-exclusive holiday 2026 gift set brings together five deluxe minis from Clarins, Burberry, Lancôme, Prada Beauty and Armani Beauty for $35. It comes in a festive red-striped box decorated with a deer, dove and owl, with "Luxury Beauty Essentials" on the lid, so it's ready to give as it is.

What's Inside: The Products and Shades

Each of the five minis covers a different step of a polished, glowy look:

• Burberry Beyond Wear Radiance Primer (0.16 oz / 5 ml): a radiance-boosting base that preps skin before foundation, or works alone for a lit-from-within finish.
• Lancôme Lash Idôle Flutter Extension Lengthening Mascara in Black (0.06 oz): built to lengthen for a fluttery, separated effect.
• Prada Beauty Pradascope Mascara in Black (0.06 oz): a second mascara for volume and length, so you can compare the two or layer them.
• Clarins Water Lip Stain in 03 Red Water (0.09 oz): a long-lasting stain for a natural flush of colour.
• Armani Beauty Lip Power Long Lasting Matte Lipstick in Shade 400 (0.04 oz): a pigmented, full-coverage matte lipstick.

Overall, the set is mostly eye and lip makeup, with one face primer.

How to Use the Set

The products work well together for a full holiday look:

1. Prime: Smooth a small amount of the Burberry primer over the centre of your face. Use it on the high points of the face for extra glow.
2. Define the lashes: Apply one coat of Lancôme Lash Idôle for length. Then add Pradascope to the outer lashes for more drama.
3. Choose your lip: For a soft daytime look, tap the Clarins Water Lip Stain onto your lips and blend with a fingertip. For an evening look, apply Armani Lip Power straight from the bullet or with a lip brush for a sharp edge.

Tip: Keep the stain and lipstick in your bag for touch-ups at holiday parties. The minis are small enough for a clutch.

Why It Makes a Great Gift

Deluxe minis are an inexpensive way to try products from five prestige brands. They're also a good size for travel and stocking stuffers. At $35, and with a holiday box that looks good under the tree, it works as a stocking stuffer or a small add-on gift. It's a good choice for beauty fans, or for treating yourself while you shop for others.
